Poor Bulgaria, like a dove in the
claws OF the eagle, she has TO suffer
outrage upon outrage. Russia's ennis
saries seized upon and carried of the
Bulgarian ruler, Alexander, and when
justice had arrested several OF the
criminal leaders In the affair, Russia
shamelessly interfered and compelled
tie liberation Of the guilty men. The
last week or two, under Russian incite-
msnt, revolts against the government
have broken out in several places. A
number OF the leaders we're arrested.
The failure TO punish the offenders In
the former case had, no doubt, led the
tools Of the CzW to expect that Rus
sia would secure to them equal i'm
manly from punishment. in case their
Efforts failed. Accordingly we fad
Russia sgain stepping forward
20 subvert justice and set
free six of the offenders. The
game the willy Car is playing is very
obvious. His emissaries provoke dis.
turbanee aud he refuses the Bull
garians the justice that is due, 10 or

lion and wrong, may be driven into
outbreak. When that occurs the Cz r
in behalf Of peace, and to save the
country from its struggles, benevo'

power. Once settled in Bulgaria
step by step Russia will tubdue the
neighboring provinces, and, unless the

HEARTY SHAKE.-Oliver B. Rich

on the night of 9th inst, was captured
at Shepherdstown, w. Va, the fol-

understand he was about to take pas

when he was called by name and a
hand extended towards his. The
refugee thinking an old acquaintance
wanted to simply shake hands with
him, was surprised at the tenacious
grip given him. He will continue to

WHAT TRUE MERIT WILL DO.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee s
German Syrup within few ears has as
tonished the world. 1t is without doubt
the safest and best remedy ever discover
ed for the speedy and effectual cure of
Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung
troubles. 1t acts on an entirely differ
emit principle from the usual prescrip-
tions given by Physicians, as it does not
dry up a Cough and leave the disease
still in the system, but on the contrary
removes the cause of the trouble, heals
the parts affected and leaves them in a
purely healthy condition. A bottle kept
in the house for use when the diseases
make their appearance, will sage doc
tors bills and long spell of serious ILL.,
ness. A trial will convince you of these
facts. 1t is positively sold by all drug
gists and general dealers in the land.

NEW YORK, March 28.-Five hun.
dred and nineteen Of the Italian pas.
sengers Of the wrecked steamer
Scotia arrived on the sea barge Hag.
gerty at Castle Garden late this at.
ternoon. The scene that followed
beggared description. They rushed
into the rotunda pell-mell, shrieking
and bowling for food like ravenous
wolves. They crowed around the
lunch tables, climbing over each
other and tramping on the helpless
women and children. Pandemon.
ium reigned supreme for fully an
hour. Mr.. Jackson gave orders to
give them all the food they needed
and charge it to the ccmmis sioners
OF emigration. Then the distribution
of food began. It was impossible to
regulate the distribution. The
strong men crowed to the front, with
uplifted arms and their eyes starting
from their sockets, crying in Italian
t" Bread, bread" The surging mob
was utterly uncomfortable women
and children were trampled on, crow
ded and pushed away. The officers
Of the garden aided in the distrihu.
ton by throwing the loaves over the
heads OF the nearest to the outskirts
OF the crowd. Every time loaf was
ired into the crowd, twentyor more
scrambled, and in some cases, fought
to get it. That dry bread was a lux
ury, was evident from the way the
starving people gorged themselves.
